just more to worry about with Obama -- vent

I know this isn't a popular topic, but I had to vent on the effects Obama is having on our life :( my company sent out an email yesterday about how much our healthcare costs are going to have to go up due to Obamacare. They are also getting rid of the "best" plan (that's I'm on) and forcing us to higher deductible plans. Also, we will have more layoffs when they start cutting more defense / military spending. So, now I'm worried about the cost of this baby next year AND if I will have a job :( ugh.

Before posting assumptions about President Obama's Health Care plan, I encourage you to go and read about the plan. The increased premiums that you are experiencng is your employer's fault. Go and read the plan for your self and stop listening to what the media is telling you. Reasing and learning for yourself is fundamental. Obama's health care plan has made out of pocket expenses cheaper for me. Anything pertaining to my pregnancy and doctor's visit is covered. Co-pay and all.....

I know this was said before but honestly it is funny to see how much control ppl think Obama has say so over he only is the commanding chief for the military. That's all he has control over and i hate to say it but Obama is just a puppet for the Congress to use as the face of America. I love Obama and all the good he'd like to do for this country but Congress will be the judge of that

I think it's funny to see how many people ignore the fact that obama care was passed with out a single republican vote. Also, it is not one company that this will be happening too, but thousands, the others will only hire employees for 29 hours to avoid mandates. I don't think the idea of obamacare is a horrible thing, it has some good things and we needed health care reform as a country, but not at the federal level.

I love how all of these Obama supporters are telling us we are being babies by not supporting him. You do realize half of the country DIDN'T want him right?! I was pissed in 2008 and im pissed now. Too many Americans want the freebies obama is promising. its disgusting. I guess I don't need college anymore, ill just drop out and take all the hand outs. Why not, Obama says its okay!
NO!! Sorry but people need to work for stuff, not get it handed to them!!

Also, who gives a rats ass who is to blame for obamacare. Bottom line, its here to stay and its going to ruin America. Case closed.

The amount of misinformation being put forth in this thread and others is absolutely terrifying.

For the record, premiums would be getting more expensive with or without the Affordable Care Act (and in fact had been for years and years before President Obama was elected for his first term). The budget office has estimated that, relative to what would happen in the absence of the law, premiums in the individual insurance market will be a little higher, employer-sponsored insurance premiums for big companies will be a little lower and employer-sponsored insurance premiums for small companies will stay about the same.

This has nothing to do with whether a person is a Democrat or Republican. This has to do with taking 30 seconds to do some unbiased research so that you don't make a fool of yourself when spreading misinformation due to your own ignorance.
